  "If we're going to get going in the right direction, he's going to be a part of it and we want to make sure we get him back on track. We think taking a little break, maybe getting that foot re-examined to make sure that there's no changes in how he has healed to this point."
  Santana threw 59 pitches over 3 1/3 innings in a Tuesday start for Class A Fort Myers, allowing one run and two hits, in his second minor league rehab start with Class A Fort Myers at Clearwater.
  Molitor said they are pulling Santana off his rehab because he is dealing with swelling.
  "We want to get him back to the surgeon and make sure that we're doing the right things as far as how we're bringing him along," Molitor said.
  "We're going to get it examined again, get some more pictures and see, and put together some kind of plan again over the next 10 days and see where it takes us, but I don't know exactly how it's going to go. I think it'll somewhat be determined by what we learn getting it re-examined."
  Santana went 16-8 with a 3.28 ERA in 33 starts last season. The 35-year-old is in the final year of a four-year $55 million contract with the Twins.
  Minnesota recalled right-hander Aaron Slegers from Triple-A Rochester, where he was 5-2 with a 3.27 ERA. The 6-foot-10 rookie went 0-1 with a 6.46 ERA in four appearances last year with the Twins.
